Description
A classic recipe that will give you perfect potatoes every time.
Ingredients
1kg/2½lb floury potatoes, such as Maris Piper
olive oil or goose fat
Method
1. Preheat the oven to 220C/425F/Gas 7.
2. Peel the potatoes and cut into large chunks. Parboil in boiling salted water for 5 minutes. Drain and toss in the pan to roughen the edges.
3. Put a generous amount of olive oil or goose fat in a roasting tin and put in oven, until smoking. Carefully take the tin out of the oven and add the potatoes to the hot fat, basting them as you do so.
4. Put the tin back in the oven and cook for about 1 hour until the roast potatoes are golden and crunchy on the outside and soft in the middle. Turn them over from time to time whilst they are cooking to make sure they colour on all sides.
Ingredients
125-175g/4-6oz potatoes per person
Method
1. Peel the potatoes and cut into even-sized chips (the thicker the chips the less fat they absorb).
2. Place in a bowl of cold water until required (this will remove the excess startch).
3. Drain and dry well, and place in a chip basket.
4. Heat the oil, preferably sunflower or corn, to 190C/375F then lower the chips into the oil and fry for 5-6 minutes, until soft but not browned.
5. Shake the basket a couple of times to ensure even cooking. Lift out the basket and drain the chips on absorbant kitchen paper, whilst reheating the oil to 200C/400F.
6. Return the chips to the oil for 2-3 minutes to brown.
7. Drain well and serve immediately.
